It is time to show our representatives that our government "of the people" is not sufficiently representing us and serving our best intentions.ol Orhanize a vocal, peaceful demonstration -- Ukraine, climate, Social safety nets, DEI, Veterans, Science, College Ed, LGBTQ+, First Amendment, publicEd

Jefferson: “A well informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny.” “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”

Spread the word - Saturday 4/5 day of resistance. Protest 'en mas. No spending on Amazon, gasoline, no Facebook, no X posts; support your cause! Fed workers, college ed., free speech, Ukraine. Anti-DOGE. Do it!

Just saw a Kristi Noem commercial spending taxpayer money to promote herself and thank Trump. If we want to DOGE something how about that corrupt garbage?

Solidarity with colleagues in Texas, who have been at the frontline of GOP attacks on, and takeover of, higher education. Rather than ignoring them, we should learn from them, as similar legislation will come to us at state and federal level.

Time for Europe to set up Radio Free America.

It makes me sick to fathom how some people will throw the entire Earth, and all her miraculous animals, plants and future generations to the wayside for short term goals. Brainless. Embarrassing. Disgusting. Cruel. We'll never forget this attack on the innocent.

With the House in recess and so much to discuss, House Republicans have plenty of time for town halls - but they’d rather ignore their constituents. Demand they hold town halls!

Trump admin can’t stop losing. That happens when you violate the law over & over: “Judge William Alsup described the mass firings as a ‘sham’ strategy by the govt’s central human resources office to sidestep legal requirements for reducing the federal workforce.” www.politico.com/news/2025/03...

Good news! 2 judges are requiring the illegal firings of probationary positions disingenuously FALSELY fired for poor performance must be reinstated.

I believe that clean air, land & water are human rights, as they are essential to sustaining life on our home planet. Manmade pollution is poisoning these elements, leading to health effects such as cancer, respiratory illensses & there is mounting evidence that other illness may be related as well.

"the plan to shrink IRS staff by up to 50% would — very conservatively — lead to a $400 billion increase in uncollected taxes over the next decade. It could easily mean more than $2 trillion in losses..." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

For such a reactionary, resistance-to-change audience, MAGA sure seems to enjoy 47's chaos. I don't understand it.

An “anti corruption pause” is a “corruption green light”

Trumpcession has arrived. Take precautions, plan accordingly. Take care of yourselves and if you can, some one else too.

We went from "I will end inflation and drive down prices on day 1" to "this recession isn't my fault" in 49 days.

On March 10, 1913, Harriet Tubman passed, but escaping slavery in 1849 to fighting oppression and leading countless to freedom through the Underground Railroad has ensured her legacy of resistance endures. 163 days until Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountdowntoSRD

Trump hugged the flag, then stabbed veterans in the back. Cutting 80,000 VA jobs won’t improve services-it’s a betrayal of those who served. Veterans kept their promise, why won’t he? Read more: adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/betrayed-a...

From Robert Reich:❤️💯

America was founded on the premise that all people are created equal & that a ruling class was obsolete. Republicans are winning a war that most people aren't aware has been raging for decades. By starting a culture war, they hid that they were full on waging a class war. We can't let them win.

As I told @TheGuardian, DOJ’s halt of corruption enforcement efforts harms consumers and other members of the public.

That is correct.

Bernie Sanders is holding MASSIVE rallies in packed venues, bigger crowds than Trump was getting, and legacy media is practically silent. Bernie is talking to workers rather than hanging out with socialites with mediocre plastic surgery at Mar-a-Lago, and it's just not interesting to corporate media

FILL THE VOID! To all Democratic members of congress! Hold town halls in Republican Districts where Repubs won’t. Show them who represents them and that you won’t walk away from them. Democrats not Republicans!

Trump wants to control all federal firing & hiring. He wants to be able to reduce & refill the ranks of career fed'l employees. It's soft coup (non-military) happening before our eyes, but too many people aren't paying attention. Read about it here: joycevance.substack.com/p/humphreys-...
